In the case of a hypothetical severe accident in a nuclear pressurized water reactor, the formation of radiotoxic RuO4(g) may occur in the reactor containment building, resulting from the interactions of ruthenium oxide deposits with the oxidizing medium induced by air radiolysis. Consequently, this gaseous ruthenium…

The kinetics of the partial oxidation of isobutane with molecular oxygen on Rh(111) single-crystal surfaces were studied by using a collimated molecular beam under ultrahigh vacuum conditions. Both hydrogen and water were shown to form as primary products, not after secondary reforming or water-gas shift steps as it h…

We report on fabrication of hybrid inorganic-on-organic thin film structures with polycrystalline zinc oxide films grown by atomic layer deposition technique. ZnO films were deposited on two kinds of thin organic films, i.e. pentacene and poly(dimethylosiloxane) elastomer with a carbon nanotube content (PDMS:CNT). Sur…

Here we report the two-step synthesis of high aspect-ratio gold nanorods via combining low pH growth and higher cetyltrimethylammonium bromide concentration. The approach is motivated by the "slow growth principle," which has been demonstrated recently as a effective protocol to prepare high aspect-ratio one-dimension…

This paper deals with the development of a modeling approach for describing the magnetomechanical behavior of magnetostrictive actuators. The model couples the finite element solution, accounting for eddy currents in the magnetic materials, with a modified Preisach-type model, identified starting from the static chara…

The phase separation of a binary fluid can lead to the creation of two horizontal fluid layers with different concentrations resting on a solid substrate and divided by a diffuse interface. In the framework of the Cahn–Hilliard equation, it is shown analytically and numerically that such a layered system is subject to…

The seedlayer effect on crystallographic structure and magnetic properties of cosputtered SmCo films on Cu underlayer was investigated. Highly textured (001) SmCo5 thin films were obtained by introducing a thin Ti or Ta seedlayer. Especially, with the Ta seedlayer, the half maximum of the rocking curve of SmCo (001) p…

Carbon nanofibers (CNFs) and activated carbon (AC) are two forms of carbon with different shape and surface properties. These two carbon materials were used as additive/nucleation agents in the polystyrene extrusion foaming process. Carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) was used as the blowing agent. Both additives showed better pro…
